Hi Emilien,

Yes, this guide will apply to a VHost setup.

You should be able to simply replace the Location directives with VirtualHost directives. The content of the directive remains the same with the addition of the servername and serveralias directives of course.

For the trac login you may want to place the location directive within the trac virtualhost if that is how you would like things setting up.

Let me know how it goes.

Daniel

Hello,
Does this guide remain valid in case of virtual hosts configuration ?

Thanks
Emilien

Try re-installing the python bindings:

wget http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/packages/ clearsilver/python-clearsilver-0.10.4-1.el5.rf.i386.rpm
rpm -i python-clearsilver-0.10.4-1.el5.rf.i386.rpm

I also thought I did fairly well. Everything seemed to install and restart, but I get this error

ClearSilver not installed (No module named neo_cgi)

when I browse to my trac url. However, if I go back and revisit the clearsilver rpm instructions, I’m told clearsilver IS already installed. Any ideas?

Hi Daniel,

Thanks very much for helps. The problem was came from SELinux, it actually blocked users from accessing to httpd service.. Phew.. here is the error message from Setroubleshoot

SELinux prevented /usr/sbin/httpd from writing 10-1.txn.Detailed DescriptionSELinux prevented /usr/sbin/httpd from writing 10-1.txn.

If 10-1.txn is a core file, you may want to allow this. If 10-1.txn is not a core file, this could signal a intrusion attempt.

Allowing Access

Changing the “allow_daemons_dump_core” boolean to true will allow this access: “setsebool -P allow_daemons_dump_core=1.”

The following command will allow this access:

setsebool -P allow_daemons_dump_core=1

Please note that the suggestion does not work at all. I disable SELinux by editting /etc/selinux/config and change the SELINUX line to SELINUX=permissive:

Cheers mate.

Dave,

Do:

cd /subversion/svn/
ls -la

Do the permissions look reasonable?

If not, try doing a temporary hack: chmod -R 777 to see if that fixes the issue - if it does don’t leave it like that but at least we have identified it’s file/ownership permissions that is problematic.
